Over the hills and through the woods? chapter 2 The one way trip
 
After several minutes of travel and no interuptions from hungry predators Nora started to wonder just how they were being kept at bay. As if on que a slimey slug like creature fell out of a tree and landed on the head of a slave girl near the front of the small convoey. The small fox muffledly yelling for help and flailing around for a momment before she was quickly engulfed and was gone from sight. Just as quickly has the creature had apeared it quickly shot back up into the trees out of sight as if tuged by a string. No one had any time to offer aid to the small fox girl, Mellissa just grumbled before signaling everyone to keep moving and speed up the pace abit. From then on Nora kept a much closer watch of the trees, hoping if such a creature came for her she might dodge its goey body.
 
Not long after the first attack came the second, far worse then the first had been, it came from a massive toad, it's tongue shooting out of the brush to the sides of the pathe and snaping up a hyena taur who was currently talking to mellissa, the poor girl gave a startled yelp and in a instant was gone. Seconds after the convoy stoped and a loud gulp could be heard near by, Mellissa then gave a order to one of the other taurs who passed on the word before they got moving again "Get out of the carts and spread out close to the tree lines food" one of the taur guards ordered to the group of bunnies resting in the cart. Nora grumbled knowing what was happening now, they were to be a meat sheild for the rest of the convoy and their owners. Nora couldnt help but feel more vervious as she hopped down from the cart and made her way to the edge of the path and started walking with everyone else as ordered. Several minutes later a girl right behind nora let out a yelp, before Nora could turn to see what was the mater the girl was gone and only a hole in the ground was left behind... Nora gulped knowing if she'd be a few steps slower that could have been her and it still could be at the rate girls were getting snatched up by hungry forest predators.
 
Several hours and at least four more moan enduceing gulps later the shore was coming into a much closer view, a large ship was anchored not far off the shore and a small group was waiting with a few row boats on the beach. Nora having survived this far started looking around for her comrades from her home town. As she looked around she slowly started spoting them, Alice was the first she found, the smaller laquine was blushing and walking along next to Mellissa near the front of the group. Nora found Quartney only to lose sight of the girl as she moved out of view behind a cart, barely avoiding the latest attack that gulped up another girl who had been a step behind her. Nora kept searching and started to become worried when she couldnt find anyone else, she started to frantactly look for little witney. Nora never would admit it but her and the tiny bunny were almost like sisters and she was worried something had gulped her up. After a few more worried momments she finaly spoted the tiny bunny having taking to the big cow taur who was pulling a cart, nested right in the big girls cleavage the little bunny was eagerly chatting away with her. Kept from sight by most she was sherking her duty of being a sheild with the others. Nora just sighed and felt at ease at least knowing those three made it this far. She was a little sad knowing the rest of her group were gone for good now.
 
A hour later the first cart had finaly reached the beach and everyone started to gather around, at least those who were not inside a stomach did. Mellissa then inspected the remaining girls before starting to speak to the ramining group "It seems luck was with us, less then half were taken, and only two of my fellow tribemates." She mused before giving a signal and the anthro hyena of the group were suddenly restrained and draged forwards "from here on we dont need spys from that fat bitch anymore, Lilly, you can have them for pulling that cart so long" Mellissa grined as the big cow taur walked up after unhitching herself from the cart, Witney still lodged in her ample bust. "Thank you mistress" she said before snatching up the first protesting hyena and quickly stuffing her into her jaws and gulping her down with ease. Witney was a tiny bit jelious of the hyena anthros as each was sent to the very roomy stomaches she had been learning about along the trip, but was willing to wait her turn when the new village shard was active. "Now that those spies are gone, "we are going to be leaveing this island behind and making a new home out of the reach of our ex queen, I will then become our new leader there and give equal rights to all who survive the trip, slave and owner alike will become equals" she muses, this quickly locking the slaves into a determined mind set of making the trip intacted and outside a stomach. Nora how ever had a feeling that was just a lie to get them to not feed themselves to some big fish or sea bird they saw with a longing look and open mouth.
 
After her speach everyone started unloading and loading goods and supplies from the carts to the row boats to the ship. After a hour or two the last trip was made which was made by Lilly who had to swim her way over to the ship and be lifted up by one of the rowboat wenches. As she was raised higher then the level of the side railing Nora gasped at the sight of the big cow taur's belly and not just that which came into view, her massive udder among other parts that dangled now not hidden by a cart harness. Lilly blushed and fidgeted in the wench harness "well I guess i cought you dinner mistress" she groans and fidgets more, a pair of mermaids who hadnt a clue what was going on had tightly latched to the big taur's udder suckling away. Before the pair could let go and splash back down into the sea the food they were so greedly trying to take swung over the railing and settled onto the deck. The two mermaids were quickly captured and bound before being pulled free of Lilly's udder. Milk started to dribble onto the deck after the greedy pair were removed. Mellissa and Naxiss wordlessly both quickly devoured the mermaids, each quickly gulping the milk filled treats down just before they could snap back into reality and protest. Mellissa gave a heaft urp as the fish girl's tail vanished into her hips "mmm sushi is a rare treat indeed, thank you Lilly good girl" she grinds and gives the big cowtaur's tush a swatt making her blush "Okay you lot lets get this ship out to sea before word of our betryal gets back to the tribe." she snaps at the girls standing about who then start rushing around getting the ships sails set and the ancher drawn up.
 
A few minutes and several barked orders later the ship started to creek and groan before it begain to move out to sea. Nora was most nervious now after having been picked to be look out at the top of the main mast. Her eyes darting around the slowly darkening water, as the ship got further from shore the water grew deeper and Nora knew if the rumors were true the beast would strike once they got so far from shore. She hoped they might be able to fight it off or out run it if she could spot it before it was able to strike. Slowly her home island grew smaller and smaller, still nothing happened as they got further out untill the island vanished from view all togethered. Nora then slowly grew more and more at ease as still nothing came for them, unknown to the busty laquine something was already closely persueing, so close infact its chubby tummy was almost bumping the bottom of the bloat as it swam on its back just under them. Before long the deep sounds of a extremely deep and longing gurgle was heard all across the ship, the sound of which put all the prey species girls onboard into a sudden arouseal. Mellissa's eyes went wide with fear at the sound "oh no... unfirl the main sail everyone take a harpoon and get ready, if we're not quick we're going to be fat!" she shouted and everyone snaped back from day dreams of what kind of stomach made that sound, as the mix matched crew scurried about a sudden stop racked through the ship sending everyone tumbling as their ship suddenly ground to a hault. Nora was first to recover and went wide eyed at what she saw.
 
Two giant femmine hands were griping ether side of the boat before a massive chubby female frame burst from the water infront of the ship and then lifted the ship upwards... "N-not like this..." Nora muttered and couldnt help but get aroused at the monsteriusly large mermaid that had captured the ship in her hands. In size compareison the ship was barely the size of a sandwich to the massive mermaid. Mellissa barely had time to recover and look up, only to be greeted by a gaping massive maw before her eyes and suddenly the entire ship was in the dark. A deep girlish mmmmm sound rumbled through everyone before a even deeper gulp was given and the ship lurched downwards. Many of the slave girls were rolling around on the deck in blushing wrecks at the thought of what was happening, their owners were in shock and fear in the darkness. Before long their trip downwards slowed and then stoped a momment before the ship begain to fall. Nora suspected they had just entered the stomach before the ship impacted the small sea of stomach juices sending everyone sprawling, a couple unluckly or possibly quite luckly went flying overboard and into the thick juices only to digest as quickly as they came incontact with the fluids, their bones left behind only for a momment before those too were gone. This time Mellissa was the first to recover and was in shocked with a horrorfied look on her face the dark gloom of where they were now filling her vission, though a odd glow was emiting from the walls in the distance. "Everyone get up, we have to get out of here now!" she shouted as her fellow taurs quickly got up and tryed finding a way out. All the slave girls sept for Lilly and Naxiss were rolling around on the deck moaning as they teased themselves, giving into their fate as whale mermaid fat, wanting to go out maoning.
 
After several minutes of searching someone noticed the stomach opening above them well out of reach "we can't get out of here we're all gonna die!" one of the hyena taur's shouted in fear before being slaped out of her panic by Mellissa "no we are not, gather any spare boxes or crates and get me oil and a lighter now, we still hace a chance if we can make this thing sick to it's stomach before the boat breaks up." she shouts as everyone scurries about getting ready, meanwhile Naxiss has went missing unknown to everyone else, the drider had come up with a plane of her own and was half way up the big mermaid's throat, scaleing her way upwards with her great climbing ability. The big mermaid was laying on her back on the surface of the ocean, murring happily with her latest catch, enjoying the feeling of the boat rocking back and forth in her massive belly, the tiny treats who were quickly gurgled by her juices adding to her bulk even if it went unnoticed from her great size and she thanked them for their additions and felt a little sad she wouldnt get to taste them a second time. Meanwhile the massive mermaid felt a odd tingle in the back of her throat but just shruged it off as some of the ship having gotten stuck on the way down. Nora during all of this was toppled over in the crows nest at the top of the mast groaning as she tryed to fight of the urge to just give in to being mermaid fat, her shaft throbbing as she barely resisted strokeing it's length.
 
Down bellow the big laquine the others were not so resistant, many of the slave girls had paired off and were going to town on eachother, trying to enjoy their last momments to the fullest. Their owners though were fighting for their lives and soon had a row boat filled with burnable materials and set adrift before a flaming arrow was fired at it, thick black smoke soon started to billow from it filling the top of the chamber. "Now we wait... this'l ether send us back up or water down to finish us off..." Mellissa sighed and watched the opening to the massive chamber waiting to see if they were destioned to be spat up or drowned. About the same time the fire started Naxiss had reached her goal and started to weave... and weave more webs, soon she had a very strong web set up and chuckled to herself before speaking to their capture just as the massive mermaid started to sputter and choke from the smoke coming up from her stomach. Naxiss's plan suddenly went wrong as the ship bellow came shooting up and went right past the drider leaveing her behind... The big mermaid coughed and choked as the boat came upwards and finaly splashed back down onto the sea, the tiny rowboat aflame right behind it. Meanwhile Naxiss atemtped to go through with her plain but now to save only herself rather then everyone. She tuged on her webbing and caused the big mermaids throat to clench shut cutting off her airway "now you big bitch, your going to do as i say or your going to run out of air long before me!" she shouted into the whale's throat causeing the sound to travel into the passage she had taken over leading to the big mermaids lungs.
 
After finaly seeing daylight once more everyone aboard the ship begain to celibrate their freedom, the slaves though pouted abit before unpairing and finishing up with all the sex related activities. The big mermaid suddenly started to grab at her throat and flail around before the group only to start sniffling as her boomy voice answered and a timid tone "I-i'm sorry, i wont do it again let me go" she begs the creature that held her life in it's hands in her own throat! "Good girl, now your going to say your sorry to my mistress on the ship and help take us to land since the ships probly not going to float much longer thanks to your greedy gut, or else." Naxiss demands of the big mermaid only to tug her throat closed to show she meant to do it if she didnt get what she wanted. The chubby mermaid sniffled and coughed abit more before she lowered her face down to the ship and with another sniffle "I-i'm sorry little snacks, I-i was hungery... I'm sorry." she offered only to the shock of the crew of the small half digested ship, as they all stared up at the big mermaid someone shouted they were taking on water. About the time the ship sprung a leak though they were lifted from the water once more into the hands of the big mermaid who started to swim away with them. Mellissa was stunned about what happend, before long she noticed several girls missing, her pet drider was one and before long the hyena taur knew why the big mermaid had suddenly become so submissive. Naxiss meanwhile had contuned to weave webs and work her way upwards untill she crawled out of a big hole on the back of the big mermaids neck, thick web strings in her hand to keep control of the big mermaid "How long untill we get to land you fat fish?" she demaned of the big mer. With another sniffle the big fish gave another timid answer, "A-a few more minutes, please let me go..." she whimpered only to get another tug causeing her throat to seal for a momment "oh your ours now, and I'm not letting you go, your my pet now." Naxiss grind to herself as she had finaly regained her place above another living creature.
 
After a hour of silent stareing from those aboard the ship the first to speak up was the one closest to the big mermaid's face. "Why did you let us go?" asked Nora only to get a glance from the big mermaid before the big drider stuck to her forehead came into view "m-my mistress ordered me to" that still timid voice boomed in asnwer, Nora just stared in disbleif, she was sure they had all been doomed but now, they might actualy make it! "There land, take us to that small island, mistress is it fitting?" the drider shouted down to the ship to a still stunned mellissa who snaped out of her stuned stare and walked to the front of the ship to take a look. "It should do just fine, theres noway we'll be found this far from the island." she shouts back up to her loyal pet spider. After a few minutes more they finaly reached the point of which the big mer could go no further and just set the ship into the shallows, from where the water level cut off from the deep it seemd to be a meer 6 feet door for oever four hundred feet to the shore and crystal clear. Scared brightly colored smaller mermaids scatered at the sight of the bigger one, swiming closer to the beach. The sight of the island was breath taking once they had gotten this close "I never thought we'd make it" Nora muttered to herself before she started to climb down from the crownest. The rest of the crew started unpacking the ship and the long task of transporting everything to the shore. Meanwhile Naxiss kept the big mermaid in check with a firm grip on her web trap. Unknown to the drider however her trap had come lose... and was no longer effectively keeping the big mermaid in check.
 
Several hours later and a few brightly colored mermaid attacks on the trips back and forth the ship was finaly unloaded and everyone but Mellissa, Nora, Naxiss, and the big mermaid were on the shore starting to set up a shelter and finding a place for the massive blue gem stone that had been packed into a big crate. "Now what to do with you, you big sea cow" Mellissa thought alowed as she looked upto the big mermaid just before the chubby girl reached behind her head and pulled the spider webs from her blowhole and gaged as the big blob of webs that had threatened to choke her poped free "I-i should chew you all for what you did to me..." she spoke afterwards, Naxiss was so stuned she lose her footing and fell down only to land in the big whale mermaid's cleavage "Run!" Mellissa shouted as everyone scurried for the rowboat trying to escape the wrath of the seemingly angery giant. Before they could reach the boat though they were scouped up in one big hand and brought before the face of the big mermaid "I-i realy should... but I-i kinda like this lil spider lady... no ones ever treated me like that before..." the big mermaid boomed with a deep blush that stuned everyone a second time today. Naxiss having been scouped up aswell quickly snaped out of the shock and put back on her dominate side "Put them down now you fat fish and tell me your name?" Naxiss demaned trying to apear in control again to the shock of the others the big mermaid only blushed and obeyed her...
 
After setting the other two down the big mermaid blushed deeply before answering in a even more timid and cute voice "M-my names O-oceaniana m-mistress" her voice even at her size barely aduable. Mellissa and Nora both stunned beyond words at just how this fish having a submissive side had saved all their lives, had she not they'd sure all be fish food again and this time with no escape. Naxiss grind and blushed at the same time as she crawled up the arm of her new pet and started tieing webs around her untill she had a BDSM style harness formed and tuged at on string cause it to squeeze Oceaniana and make a moan escape her. "Well i'll be damned, shes totaly under that spider bitch's thumb" Nora muttered before geting a wap to the back of her head from her mistress. "This is perfect, now we have protection from invaders, we'll make her a tribe member and have her guard the island in return for being dominated by Naxiss as a treat." Mellissa grined deviously. Meanwhile tends were being set up on the beach and then everyones attention went to the beach as the massive blue gem came to life in it's new home on the shore and begain to glow with the last rays of light of the day. The two girls who had fallen overboard during their trip to a whale stomach started to reform under its blue glow since their predator was withen it's range of effect, Mellissa kept mental note that the range was effective this far out and grinded with a idea of how to design the village now.
 
As the sun started to settle over the backside of the island the three who were left by the ship and the big mermaid finaly parted ways for the night "We'll send Naxiss to pick you up in the morning, untill then make sure nothing comes to the island that could threaten us." Mellissa spoke to her newest follower before their boat toke off towards the beach "Y-yes ma'am, good night" the still so timid and cute sounding voice of the big fish spoke as she waved a big hand and then sunk below the waves. As they rowed to the shower they were surprised none of those fiesty colorfull mermaids atempted to attack them. But soon found out why, as the boat hit bottom midway. The tides had gone out and the bay was completely drained of water leaveing the three walking to the shore were several campfires were built. As they neared the shore sounds of moaning girls could be heard in the cool night air, those who had made it to this new home were partakeing in the pleasures that came with having a village shard to keep being eaten from being a once in a life time experience. As they walked into the light of the fires Nora noticed Witney's paw pads pokeing from the right nipple of the big cowtaur Lilly and it just made her giggle as she knew just how much those two liked eachother now. To the other side of the fire there were several very stuffed hyena taurs and only very exausted Alice laying on her back with the hind end of one such taur pokeing from her cock tip, to bloated with a celibration meal to go further in. Nora giggled and smiled happily, maybe living with thise people wouldnt be so bad she mused right before the world went dark and moist. She gasped and struggled at first but soon gave in to the hungry needs of her mistress who was eagerly wolfing down the busty laquine. After reaching her breasts Naxiss was required to help pack the bunny in without chokeing Mellissa on them. Soon enough Nora's breasts were in and her body almost shot down out of sight to settle in the big taur belly of her owner. "Mmmm I'll be keeping her as my personal food bitch from now onwards" Mellissa muttered happily and smacked her wirthing stomach, clearly the laquine had lost control of her lust and was working off so much pent up need against those warm stomach walls. Mellissa had just settled own for the night when she felt her stomach become very full and wet then she started to cough before thick globs of salty white driped from her lips "Oh my, someone was pent up" Mellissa muttered to herself before swallowing it back down, unknown to her and everyone eyes among the tree line were watching the group, they were not alone here...
